This is sooo good, can you write the lyrics plz

“How beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news!” (Isaiah 52:7) Thank you so much for this song and for all your service.  Your music touches the hearts of many people, Coptic and non-Coptic, all around the world. There is a jovial Sunday school group who listens to your hymn while in the merriment of company, and are edified by it. But do not forget that there is also the lonely Christian who is far from home for work or study, maybe in a place without a regular church / any communion for months, who finds your labours on SoundCloud, and is also edified by it. People from so many backgrounds and situations listen and their spirits are drawn towards God. This is an excellent labour in His field, and I can’t imagine just how happy Jesus is when He sees you dedicating yourself to this.  (comment contined below – character limit)

In the midst of the raging sea,
There I was sailing.
The waves were pounding me,
Making me afraid.
(And it seems That Christ has left me,) x2
(But I no longer see him because of my weak faith) x2

Refrain:
Jesus when he saw me,
Came to me quickly.
In my despair and darkness,
He opened my eyes.
(When I saw him, I cried have mercy) x2
(He came to me quickly and had mercy on me) x2

The sounds of the angry waves,
Agonized my ears.
Darkness of the creeping night,
Has threatened my peace.
(And the tears, have not left my eyes)x2
(And the sleepless nights, have overwhelmed me) x2

I was in despair and drowning,
And my hope is torn.
I came to my beloved Jesus,
Offering him my tears.
(When he saw me, He had compassion on me) x2
(He stretched out his sweet hand, and dried my tears) x2

In the Midst of the Raging Sea

Chorus:
The Lord is near to those who call on Him
He is not far as we have made Him 		
He’s not a stranger to all our sufferings
He said “come now hurry all you weary”
To give them rest from burdens too heavy  
To wipe a tear from all hearts in misery

V1:
Sojourner and no place to stay
Abandoned, doubted and friends betrayed 	
Yet He arose to grant the way 
to eternity
A friend to the tax collectors, 
A comfort for the adulterers,
An advocate for the sinners 
Of whom I am chief

V2:
He guided all those questioning, 
goodness on earth He was spreading, 	
He tasted death while bearing 
The shame of sinners 
His night of death, prayed earnestly
Father willing, take this from Me
Sweat drops of blood from agony
All for my sake

V3: 
When I was thirsty He quenched me 
When I was naked He clothed me
When abandoned He sheltered me 
From all my fears 				
So how can I not be trusting
His love I'll never be doubting 
A Father who is so loving 
Even to death

The Lord is Near - الرب قريب - Translation

Have You Seen Him

REFRAIN:

O MY MASTER HOW CRUEL WAS THE SHAMEFUL DEATH OF THE CROSS
BEFORE IT CARRIED YOU, YOU CARRIED IT
O RIGHTEOUS ONE

1)YOU ASKED FOR WATER, YOU TASTED VINEGAR
AND ALL BITTERNESS,
YOUR BLOOD FLOWED FROM YOUR BODY,
TO SAVE ALL SINNERS

2) UPON THE CROSS, O MY BELOVED
YOU SUFFERED MUCH PAIN
BY THOSE WHO CAUSED YOUR SUFFERING 
YET YOU FORGAVE THEIR SINS

3)ALL THIS MY LORD, 
TO BRING ME BACK
IN YOUR PROTECTION, I’LL LIVE WITH YOU
AND YOU WILL COMFORT ME

4) OH THAT MY HEART, MAY TREASURE YOU
SO THAT I MAY ATTAIN YOU
AND LIVE SINCERELY 
IN SUBMISSION TO YOU

O My Master

Morning Mist

Lyrics:

One day You passed by me
You saw chains on my hands
I saw with my own eyes
Tears for me in Your eyes

One day I passed by You
I saw my chains on Your hands
I’m free because of You
Then tears filled my eyes

(“How much, Lord, did You pay
To set me free?” I asked
“My son, it is a lot,
But not too much for you.”) x2

One day by me You’ll pass
About my freedom You’ll ask
Feeling my slavery
Although in You I’m free

My sins have bounded me
Loving the world around me
I seek my place in it
That I am Yours I forget

(Free yet I am Your slave
Yours for all of my days
Your slave and free I’ll live
To You myself I give.) x2

One Day You Passed By Me - 2AM Bolivia Sessions w/ Maria Athnasios

Hold my hand, O Lord,
Like You held Peter's hand.
When he started to drown,
You gently held his hand.

[Lifted him over the waves
And made him feel safe.] (2)
[And me too, O Lord,
hold my hand.] (2)

The waves are strong for me;
Makes my heart tremble,
And the winds, O Lord, are strong.
I´m not able to stand.

[When the ship goes up and down,
And rocks are in the way,] (2)
[Tell the waves to be calm,
And hold me in you arms.] (2)

Enter my ship o lord 
And also in my life
Cast my fear away
And heal all my pain

[And dwell in my heart
And fill it with your peace] (2)
[Never leave me alone
To walk in my path] (2)

My faith o lord is weak
Strengthen my faith 
And If I ever doubt you
Or get lost in the way

[Bring me back to live
With you all my life] (2)
[You are my father lord
Your heart is full of love] (2)

Hold My Hand, O Lord

His Sweet Voice - Erin Melek & Anthony Marcos feat. Father Suriel Costandi
Oud by Moura Raghib

Once I wandered so far away
from my Good Savior Jesus.
He came to me, He who saved me,
and called for me to return.

Refrain: 
His sweet voice did call me, call me:
“Prolong not thy straying away.
O dear child, return quickly, 
and come to Me, come to Me!”

Cruel thorns left my feet to bleed out,
wounds and agony unparalleled.
I heard the Voice call out to me,
“Thou art in error, return.”

Never did I ever care to 
heed to Him, nor to His words.
Therefore I walked away with His
warnings of pain in contempt.

My path grew ever more treacherous,
menacing darkness has prevailed.
I cried in my profound anguish:
“Where is Thy delightful Face?”

My grief has exceeded limits
due to my straying away. 
Desolated, I requested: 
“O my Savior! Come to me!”

Straightaway, a light shone brightly,
O how radiant it was!
My tender Redeemer with a
smile appeared to my aid.

His Sweet Voice - Erin Melek & Anthony Marcos feat. Fr. Suriel Costandi

A stranger I lived in the world
A foreigner like my forefathers
A pilgrim in my attitude
In my thoughts and my desires
A Stranger, I have no one to
Unload on him, my thoughts so true

The people do not like my roots
Nor do they understand my end
In craze arise the multitude
In maddening noise without an end
And I remain in solitude
Serenity in my heart felt
A stranger, I can find no home
Nor a corner to rest alone

I cast away the world's pleasures
Ignoring her callings to me
I went, I dragged away my things
Away from their merry-makings
My heart silent, indifferent
To all they think is important
My listening will never yield
To loud and worldly conversing

I wander off all on my own
So happy to be in the vast
With my timbrel and my cymbal
And melodies of praise I sing
And now comes the holy moment
In which I Retreat with my King
I roam about as a spirit
Invisible to on-lookers
The world alien I am to it
A foreigner like my forefathers

My existence is a triumph
No wealth, power to disturb me
No house is here to delay me
Nor any friend or family
And with me are the sweet verses
And great proverbs to console me
The Bible here my only lamp
And nothing else to concern me

I do not know of any fear
Nor any bonds that hinder me
No longer does the world rule me
Against me and at times for me
No longer does the world rule me
Against me and at times for me
I say to every enemy
Who only wants to seduce me
Beware that now I am alive
A stranger as were my fathers.

O My Master
